Subject: Decent quality with possible caveat

If looking for a scanned copy of the Douay Bible, this is of fairly decent quality, with larger than average typeface, however, have noticed on page xxxvi of the Encyclical Letter from Pope Leo XIII, the translator/publisher mis-stated the term of his potificate as having been 18 years at the time when it had only been 16 years, as correctly stated in this edition (also see here). Its also worth noting, the letter was translated differently in each edition, suggesting one more faithful to the original than the other
